Genuine hand-painted mud cloth from Mali

Mud cloth is one Africa's most unusual and unique textile traditions.

Narrow strips of hand-woven cotton are stitched together into a whole cloth, then painted with patterns and symbols using a variety of natural dyes, including river mud that has been aged up to one year.

Each cloth is a unique creation. Sizes vary, usually about 100 x 170 cm / 40 x 66 in, approximately.
